Early Career and Military Service: A Foundation of Service and Leadership

Sean Maxwell's professional journey is rooted in over 30 years of distinguished service with the Department of Defense. He spent 28 years as a U.S. Navy officer, rising through the ranks with a focus on leadership, strategic planning, and international affairs. For the final 15 years of his military career, Sean specialized in foreign affairs, contributing to critical national security efforts that required meticulous attention to detail, empathy in high-stakes situations, and the ability to guide teams through complex challenges.

Following his retirement from active duty, Sean continued his public service as a civil servant on the U.S. Air Force staff for over two years. This extensive government and military background honed his skills in crisis management, ethical decision-making, and personalized support — qualities that translate seamlessly into his role as a senior living advisor today.

While specific details about Sean's formal education are not publicly detailed, his long career in the Navy and DoD typically requires advanced training, officer commissioning programs, and ongoing professional development in leadership, strategy, and international relations.

As Sean has shared:

“I’m excited to bring my problem-solving skills and dedication to service into the senior care field. Navigating the various care options can be overwhelming, and my goal is to offer families peace of mind by helping them make informed decisions that suit their unique needs.”
